Box Compression Tester (BCT)
Determines the compressive strength of corrugated boxes and cartons under controlled loading.
Full Description
BCT
CODE: E.212.XXX
USAGE
To carry out compression tests on corrugated boxes and other types of packaging with the product inside.
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The Box Compression Tester is built into a sturdy base frame in which two pressure plates are mounted. The upper plate can be used fixated and parallel to the bottom plate or can be tilted via four fixation levers. There are three sensors under the lower plate which measure the force and break of the box. The device is operated via the touch panel and adjustable limit switches on the front.
FEATURES
- sturdy base frame
- 3 electronic load cells under the bottom plate
- electronic deformation transducer
- guiding of the upper plate done by 4 cylindric column guides and linear bearings with very low friction
- 2 fixed safety stroke limits
- 2 adjustable moveable safety stroke limits
- 2 spindles with low-friction ball circulation
- safety switch easy-accessible on the front
- servo motor & reduction gear to achieve stable speeds in full
- electronic & physical protection installations
- graphical display of test results
- statistics like mean value, standard deviation, max. and min. values
- configurable parameters of force, extension and speed
- RS-232 interface
